I don't know why, after a year or so of lurking, this is the thread I feel I should respond to. But I think people have a very narrow view of anthropomorphic entertainment, and immediately label it all furry stuff. Even fans of it call everything anthropomorphic furry. And I can't really disagree, but I feel like that's the same as calling anime "cartoons". I'm not at all a furry or into furry stuff in general, but I do have a nostalgic affinity to Gadget and Princess Sally. But they aren't nearly human enough for me to say as an adult I would be attracted to them if they were introduced now. But there's a wide world of anthropomorphic entertainment that shouldn't be ignored just because "animals". Barely any of it gets sexual at all
The Secret of NIMH
Redwall
Mouse Guard
Zootopia
Ghost of a Tail
Blacksad
All pretty good, mature and thought provoking stories about anthropomorphic animals
And then you have things like Watership Down, which is just straight up animals with human personalities, and they legitimately go insane, and die and stuff. Very mature, not sexual, not furry stuff, and I love when entertainment goes there
I love mature non-sexual anime as well
Mature and thought provoking puppet movies like The Dark Crystal are pretty good as well
Now that I think about it, it's kinda funny how video games so quickly went from being just kids stuff to legitimate drama and entertainment for adults, when cartoons, animals, and puppets always have to wear a stigma badge even still
Edit: I do plan on checking out Beastars, because the trailer snippets looks like good character drama, not because it has sexy animals or anything
Yes, Beastars is the trout. Please watch it
I've always rolled my eyes at the fact that Dale wears only a Hawaiian shirt, Chip only wears a leather jacket, Monterey Jack doesn't wear pants, but Gadget needs a full body suit.
There's a history of half dressed male anthropomorphic creatures and female anthropomorphic creatures being completely/or more fully dressed. We're even uptight about how naked our fictional animals ladies can be in media. We simultaneously sexualize and sanitize even fictional women. Culture is weird.
this thread is weird
You're weird. Now put on the cat onesie I sent you.
that's weird
Onesies make me think of the sad halloween store mascot outfits furries wear for their orgies. I do not have nearly the exaggerated imagine enough to think of that stuff as sexy. I like playboy bunnies and Japanese catgirls, but those gigantic stuffed animals freak me out. My anthros need to be appropriately proportionately human for me to s/o to them.
To clarify my statements, it is not my intent to physically upset anyone. My format is more/less ribbed for your humor. But as per any thread, if what I say upsets you, you don't need to be here. Bunch of narrow-minded sycophants.
